Hey Marc! Yes, I'm in. Gonna hold this one for a while.
Cool! I have to admit that I got cold feet at D S1 and took my profits.

Here is what I have for UCHF. Will be taking positions at weekly piv which is also a confluence area as well.

FYI. There is a gap higher on the SPY this morning. Shahab had a feeling earlier that we are going down today. Might be right as we need to fill the gap!

Probably a quick long. But will be watching to PA to make sure it can sustain. If it drops though, then short. With UCHF if UTL can wedge price through, that would be a concern. I attached a chart. Look for situations like this, so it all depends on when PA hits piv. Hoping for the blue, but red is possible, either way, we should get a small bounce which should allow for at least a BE trade.

If UCAD follows blue it will hit @ heavy confluence

All of these are what I want to see, but we rarely get what we want right

PA is already on the move though

My concern is that when PA gets to some of these targets, it will be pretty shallow, that is, not steep So bounces will be minimal.

The best way to explain it would be the tennis ball and the wall. If you throw a tennis ball fast at a wall, it will bounce back almost all the way back to you. If you walk slowly up to the wall and lob it at the wall, it will usually just hit the wall and fall right at the base of the wall. The same is similar with PA angle and S/R. PA being the ball and S/R the wall. Except for with PA, it can blow through the wall with enough strength, so like a cricket ball would have been a better example I am just hoping for some fast PA and no shallow stuff near S/R. That is another reason why I don't usually set limit orders. The last few bars before an S/R are the most important and the deciding factor if the wall will hold.

Also, if I see a bunch of dojis right before an S/R, that is a bad sign too, see attached.

Ya, I use the same principle. If I see PA consolidating near an S/R and then looks like it will spring I stay away from the bounce trade. If we are far from an S/R and PA is moving fast to it with long candles I will usually take the bounce trade.

Kind of choppy again today... Wacky Wednesday. Full Moon as well. Lots of wicks. I'm standing to the sidelines.

I should go hit a few balls on the range to clear my mind.

A/U. My best suggestion is to let H4 candle close at 1pm est and then go long or go long at D R1 8346.
